Britney Spears has reportedly struck up a friendship with rock band Nine Inch Nails.

The two acts have been sharing the same rehearsal facility in Los Angeles as they prepare for their upcoming separate tours.

Writing on Spears's official blog, Nails frontman Trent Reznor said: "I can hear the thumping low end of Britney Spears. It's been a treat having them here the whole time we've been here."

Spears's manager Adam Leber agreed, saying that the musicians were "getting along famously", adding: "Maybe we should ask Trent Reznor to remix Circus?"
